Chapter 1577: Planting a Spy

Just as Yan Tu and Gui Shou Yi Dao felt they were doomed, Ye Liuyun directly waved the Hundred-Refined Soul Banner, intending to suck them both in.

"Surrender and live, resist and die, you choose!"

Ye Liuyun suddenly changed his mind, wanting to give them both a chance.

Ye Liuyun originally did not intend to subdue the two Yin Souls, Yan Tu and Gui Shou Yi Dao, fearing they would affect Xiu Luo's management of Yin Souls.

But now we need to deal with the Underworld God; it's perfect to let them contribute.

The people the Underworld God sent this time to kill him actually all previously hated the Underworld God to the core.

If there were no contract restrictions, they wouldn't mind stabbing the Underworld God in the back.

"We have signed a Divine Soul Contract with the Underworld God!"

Gui Shou Yi Dao said helplessly.

"The Hundred-Refined Soul Banner can erase your contract!"

Ye Liuyun replied: "Don't believe you? You can look at that Bazuzhizhu!"

Upon hearing that, Gui Shou Yi Dao and Yan Tu glanced at each other and both nodded.

Under these circumstances, if they continued to resist, it would be a dead end.

After just one exchange, they were beaten so badly; if the fight continued, they would surely die.

Better to surrender and follow Ye Liuyun to fight the Underworld God; that wouldn't be bad.

Compared to killing Ye Liuyun, they were more interested in taking down the Underworld God.

Moreover, seeing so many Martial Cultivators of the Ninth Heavenly Venerable beside Ye Liuyun now, they both felt great hope.

Thus, they both obediently entered the Hundred-Refined Soul Banner, becoming Ye Liuyun's Kuailei.

"Master..." Xiu Luo also didn't want to bring these two Yin Souls; they definitely wouldn't obey her management.

"I know what you mean.

"I just let them rest a bit, then send them to find the Underworld God."

Ye Liuyun explained to Xiu Luo.

"Let them go find the Underworld God?"

Xiu Luo hadn't reacted yet.

Ye Liuyun smiled: "Let them catch the Underworld God off guard!"

Then Xiu Luo realized Ye Liuyun wanted to plant a spy.

"But if their Divine Soul Contract disappears, won't the Underworld God know?"

Xiu Luo countered.

"It's not necessarily certain they've betrayed the Underworld God."

"If they die, the Divine Soul Contract will also disappear!"

Ye Liuyun said.

Xiu Luo thought for a moment, then suddenly understood.

"The Underworld God now thinks they're dead."

"If they suddenly appear, the Underworld God will surely be curious and inquire."

"Then they can launch a sneak attack!"

"Not bad!"

Ye Liuyun nodded, then added: "Or they can also play along, pretending to cooperate with the Underworld God to capture me, then strike at the crucial moment."

"We don't need them to kill the Underworld God; just inflict heavy damage at the crucial moment."

"Good! Then I'll go inform them, tell them to leave some external injuries, not let their wounds heal completely."

Xiu Luo said happily.

Ye Liuyun then waved the Soul Banner, taking back all the Yin Souls.

Then he dispatched a squad of Yin Souls for guard, while he himself quietly began cultivating.

His avatar also returned to the Xuan Kong Shi to continue cultivating, hoping to improve even a little before confronting the Underworld God.

At this moment, three Nether Ghost Ships were sailing at full speed in the Fog Sea...

The Underworld God indeed, as Ye Liuyun had expected, followed those three warships and quietly arrived in the Fog Sea.

He had those few Yin Souls chase Ye Liuyun, merely as a decoy.

His purpose was to use the treasure Heavenly Net and Earthly Trap to trap Ye Liuyun to death in the Fog Sea.

When Ye Liuyun was fighting the Wild Boar King, the Underworld God had already begun preparations.

After making the preparations, he didn't rush to act; only when the five Yin Souls he sent out had their Divine Soul Contracts disappear one after another did he confirm they had all been killed by Ye Liuyun.

He thus confirmed that Ye Liuyun was indeed trapped inside.

Then he ordered those three Nether Ghost Ships to all follow him into the Fog Sea.

The Yin Souls previously sent to chase Ye Liuyun, he also recalled all of them to the Underworld.

He felt this time would surely annihilate Ye Liuyun, no need to keep Yin Souls guarding elsewhere.

After entering the Fog Sea, he also restored the link with the Death Mark to seek Ye Liuyun's position.

As soon as those Nether Ghost Ships entered the Fog Sea, the Yin Souls beside Ye Liuyun sensed it.

At the same time, Ye Liuyun's Death Mark also sensed the Underworld God's appearance.

Ye Liuyun immediately released Yan Tu and Gui Shou Yi Dao from the Hundred-Refined Soul Banner.

"I give you a chance to assassinate the Underworld God! Return to his side, act according to the situation."

"You can attack directly if you get close, or gain his trust, stay by his side, and strike at the crucial moment."

Ye Liuyun said to them.

"We need to make the Underworld God believe us; we should bring back some useful information, right?"

Yan Tu suggested.

They both didn't want to go back alone to adventure.

However, once they enter the Hundred-Refined Soul Banner, they will be under Ye Liuyun's control and cannot avoid going.

Ye Liuyun also gave them some information: "The Underworld God is heading this way."

You can tell him that when he gets close, I will return to the Formation I prepared beforehand!

You can also tell the Underworld God that Xiu Luo has defected to me, bringing a force of thousands of Yin Souls, all at Earth Sovereign level.

"How do we explain to the Underworld God that our Divine Soul Contract has disappeared?"

Gui Shou Yi Dao asked again.

"Just say that you were absorbed by the Hundred-Refined Soul Banner but weren't actually taken inside."

"I don't know how it happened, but the Divine Soul Contract was just erased!"

Ye Liuyun made up a far-fetched excuse for them.

Anyway, he doesn't want to keep these two; it'd be best if they could bluff their way through, but if they fail and the Underworld God kills them, it's no loss.

Then he added: "The Underworld God will surely suspect."

"But it's only suspicion; he's currently in need of people, so he won't kill you right away."

"What if he forces us to sign another Divine Soul Contract?"

Yan Tu asked again.

"You're already free, so it's normal to refuse and not sign right away."

Helping him out would be doing one's utmost.

"He's not likely to make such a demand."

Ye Liuyun said.

Yan Tu, Gui Shou Yi Dao, and Ye Liuyun discussed it for a while; although they felt it was dangerous, they still had to go, and in the end they had no choice but to agree.

However, after their discussion they found that they weren't completely without a chance.

"What about this arrow wound of mine?"

Gui Shou Yi Dao pointed at the hole Ye Liuyun had shot through and asked.

Ye Liuyun raised his hand and took back the Buddha Light Power inside.

But he still said: "Leaving you with a little wound actually makes it look more convincing!"

"Mm, I'll keep this wound!"

Gui Shou Yi Dao acknowledged.

As long as the Buddha Light Power's corrosion is gone, this little wound will heal quickly for him.
